Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to a method for treating diabetes and related disorders in a mammal.
  • the method involves administering glucagon like peptide (GLP-1) or a related molecule having GLP-1 like effect to provide a therapeutically effective amount of endogenous insulin.
  • GLP-1 glucagon like peptide
  • the amount of drug administered to the mammal is substantially reduced to produce a "drug holiday".
  • Practice of the invention achieves effective therapy without continuous drug exposure and without continuous presence of therapeutic levels of the drug.
  • GLP-1 Glucagon-like peptide 1
  • GLP-1 has been described as a physiological incretin hormone. It reportedly serves to augment an insulin response after an oral intake of glucose or fat. It is generally understood that GLP-1 lowers glucagon concentrations, slows gastric emptying, stimulates (pro)insulin biosynthesis, enhances insulin sensitivity and stimulates the insulin independent glycogen synthesis. See Hoist, JJ (1999) Curr Med Chem. 6: 1005; Nauck, MA, et al. (1997) Exp Clin Endocrinol Diabetes 105:187; and Lopez-Delgado,MI, et al. (1998) Endocrinology 139:2811.
  • GLP-1 amino acid and protein sequence has been reported for human and other mammals.
  • GLP-1 is thought to have a 37 amino acid residue protein. See eg., Heinrich, G., et al., Endocrinol, 115: 2176 (1984); and Uttenthal, L. O., et al., J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metabol,
  • GLP-1 (7- 37) is known.
  • a variety of analogs have also been described eg., Gin 9 -GLP-1 (7-37), D- Gln 9 -GLP-1 (7-37), acetyl-Lys 9 -GLP-1 (7-37), Thr 16 -Lys 18 -GLP-l(7-37), and Lys 18 -GLP- 1 (7-37), Gly 8 -GLP-1 (7-37), Ser 8 -GLP-1 (7-37),.
  • GLP-1 derivatives have also been reported particularly as acid addition salts, carboxylate salts, lower alkyl esters, and amides. See WO 91/11457 and Mojsov, S., Int. J. Peptide Protein Research, 40:333-343 (1992), and references cited therein.
  • GLP-1 derivatives have been disclosed some of which are reported to have agonist activity. See eg., U.S. Patent Nos. 6,358,924; 6,344,180; 6,284,725; 6,277,819; 6,271,241; 6,268,343; and 6,191,102.
  • exendin- 4 a protein called exendin- 4 has been isolated from the salivary gland of the Gila monster. Further work has shown that the peptide is related to GLP-1. There is recognition that the peptide is a potent agonist for the mammalian GLP-1 receptor. Recent studies have shown that administration of exendin-4 induces pancreatic endocrine differentiation, islet proliferation and an increase in jS-cell mass indicating that exendin-4 may exert tropic effects on the /3-cells. See Raufman, JP, et al. J (1992) J Biol Chem 267:21432; Young, AA, et al.
  • GLP-1 is further capable of enhancing the ability of ⁇ -cells to sense and respond to glucose in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance. See Byrne et al., supra.
  • db/db mice is a satisfactory model of human type II diabetes.
  • This diabetic mouse has been characterized by leptin receptor mutation leading to severe obesity, early onset of type II diabetes, hyperinsulinaemia and marked peripheral insulin resistance. Ultimately these animals develop ⁇ -cell exhaust and full insulin dependence.
  • the clinical progression from type II to type I diabetes in db/db mice is believed to be bear relationship to human type II diabetes. See Coleman, DL (1973) Diabetologia 9:294; and Leiter, EH, et al. (1983) J.Nutr. 113:184.
  • Reported treatment methods generally involve administration of insulin alone or in conjunction with one or more agents including oral hypoglycemic drugs. See S. N. Davis and D. Granner, supra.
  • the invention generally relates to a method for preventing or treating diabetes and related disorders in a mammal.
  • the method involves administering a therapeutically effective amount of glucagon like peptide (GLP-1) or related molecule having a GLP-1 like effect and then reducing that amount, often substantially, to prevent or treat the disease.
  • GLP-1 glucagon like peptide
  • Preferred practice of the invention achieves a much desired "drug holiday" during which time the mammal provides itself with a useful amount of endogenous insulin usually without further exposure to the drug.
  • the invention has a variety of uses including helping to prevent, treat, delay onset of, or reduce symptoms associated with diabetes without continuous presence of the administered GLP-1 or a related molecule.
  • the invention may also be used to prevent development of a failure to respond to oral diabetic compounds in some diabetic patients. It has been discovered that it is possible to prevent or treat diabetes and related disorders by administering GLP-1 and related molecules (drugs) in a new way. More specifically, it has been found that it is not necessary to expose mammals to these drugs continuously to achieve a desired therapeutic effect. That is, it has been found that it is possible to reduce administration of the drug, sometimes substantially, over a time period referred to herein as a "drug holiday". During the drug holiday, the mammal is surprisingly able to provide itself with a useful amount of endogenous insulin.
  • the amount of endogenous insulin is generally sufficient to help prevent, treat, delay onset of, reduce symptoms of, or delay progression of diabetes and related disorders.
  • Administration of GLP-1 or related molecules is not needed over this time period although after the drug holiday, drug administration can be resumed.
  • the drug holiday can provide mammals and especially human patients with much sought after relief from invasive, sometimes painful, and often repetitive and expensive therapies. Potentially serious side-effects and related complications often associated with such therapies can be reduced, delayed, or in some instances eliminated by my invention. In particular, risk of developing hypoglycemia, allergy and resistance, and edema and related insulin side effects can be sometimes be reduced or avoided by providing for at least one drug holiday in accord with this invention.
  • the GLP-1 or related molecule can be administered to the patient regularly and for a time sufficient to at least maintain and, in some instances, increase endogenous insulin levels.
  • further administration of the GLP-1 or related molecule can be decreased, sometimes substantially, to provide for the drug holiday.
  • the patient is able to provide him/herself with an amount of endogenous insulin that is therapeutically relevant. That is, the amount of endogenous insulin provided is able to help the patient exert more control over undesired blood glucose fluctuations.
  • my invention the need to continue or even increase exposure to GLP-1 or related molecules can be avoided during the drug holiday by using my invention.
  • administration of the drug is eliminated entirely during the drug holiday period.
  • the GLP-1 or related molecule is administered again to the mammal in an amount that is the substantially the same or different from the amount administered previously. That second drug administration can be followed by another drug holiday if desired.
  • each drug holiday is preferably followed by administration of an amount of at least one of GLP-1, a GLP-1 related molecule, or another drug such as those recognized anti-diabetic agents disclosed herein such as insulin and analogues thereof.
  • the invention can be used to provide a mammal such as a human patient with a first drug holiday, after which time the GLP-1 or a related molecule having a GLP-1 like effect is administered to the patient in an amount that is preferably therapeutically effective.
  • the method can be repeated once, twice, thrice or as often as needed to provide a therapeutic regimen that features one, two, three or more drug holidays.
  • the invention methods can be repeated as needed eg., every day, every few days, every few weeks, every few months up to the lifetime of the mammal to prevent or treat a medical condition.
  • Human patients who are known to have diabetes or who are suspected to be susceptible to same are expected to benefit particularly from the invention.
  • the invention features a method for preventing or treating diabetes and/or a related disorder in a mammal, preferably a human patient.
  • the method includes administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of at least one of GLP-1 and a related molecule having GLP-1 like effect in which eg., the amount and timing of administration are such as to prevent or treat the diabetes or related disorder typically without the continuous presence of the molecule in the mammal.
  • Additional invention methods include reducing administration of the GLP-1 or related molecule below about the therapeutically effective during the drug holiday. Additional features of the drug holiday are discussed below.
  • the amount of GLP-1 or related molecule administered to the mammal is preferably, but not exclusively, one that is therapeutically effective. In one embodiment and without wishing to be bound to theory, the amount is sufficient to help the mammal maintain or even increase endogenous insulin levels (before or during the drug holiday). To begin the drug holiday, the amount of administered drag is reduced or eliminated entirely.
  • the drug holiday period is not tied to any particular endogenous insulin level(s) or method of providing or producing that insulin in vivo so long as that during the drug holiday, the mammal is able to provide itself with some amount of useful insulin, preferably an amount that is therapeutically relevant and effective.
  • the mammal can be subjected to additional therapy including further administration of at least one of GLP-1, a related molecule having GLP-1 like effect, and recognized anti-diabetic agents such as those mentioned herein.

  • Therapeutically relevant levels of insulin are known for a wide variety of mammals. For human patients, it has been reported that endogenous insulin circulates in the blood as a monomer at a concentration of between from about 2 to about 4 ng/ml in the portal blood and in the peripheral circulation at about 0.5ng/ml or about 0. lnm.

Granner, supra.

Rather, there is general recognition in the field that any amount of insulin provided endogenously is relevant in most therapuetic settings. That is, it is generally preferred that a subject mammal have capacity to provide some amount of endogenous insulin regardless of whether it achieves normal or near normal levels.

Additionally preferred dosages of the GLP-1 and related molecules will further approach endogenous levels of insulin production in subject mammals eg., by at least about 50% up to 100% to 200% of same.
